I'm wondering what deck I should look to build, I'm a returning player with no budget looking for a well performing deck that hopefully won't lose too many cards come rotation this fall. I'm looking at either UW Delver, RG Aggro, WR Humans, or some form of Naya. Any suggestions?
So my take on the deck has been to steer away from the hugh CMC creatures and go with something a little more controlish. This deck is untested so some of the numbers may not be right, but some of the little interactions is nuts. Unflipped Mayor equals bigger Delver/Snapcaster. Flipped Mayor and Garruk equals 2 3/3 woves a turn. The quality of the advantage is just nuts.
How do you guys feel about adding 2 or 3 Village Bell-Ringer into the sideboard for mirror matches or against aggro decks. Seems like if they overextend on the swing back it could be a blowout.
If control or pod is going to be more expected, wouldn't something along the lines of Mindshrieker be a better choice than the Invisible Stalker? Same mana cost, has evasion, but has a fairly relevant ability.
As a general rule when I look at building UW control I try to avoid cards that rely heavily on other cards to be good. A card should be good on it's own and great when it interacts. Snapcaster and Geist on their own are good, when you have pieces to go with them, they are great. Curosity on it's own is dead. And it really only shines on the unblockable guy. I'd cut the curosity and run think twice and ponder myself.
My frustration with Tik-Tik has nothing to do with the WPLs. You guys are all terrific, I know updates from WPLs can be erratic and there is no issue with that at all. However what does bother me is when a player signs up for a quest and disappears. I feel signing up to a quest is an optional commitment. If as a player I were to feel burned out or bored, I'd post that I was leaving. The WPLs putting up quests are not requirements, it is out of their generosity. I appreciate it, and I'm sorry that this sentiment is not expressed enough. So to all the WPLs, Thank you.
If I actually stuck to a character I'm sure I'd be pretty far ahead too. But I'd settle with just letting my goblin finish his first quest. Pretty soon I might take my gruul out of storage if this keeps up.
With the porting of a character, are we allowed to reinvent the character completely?

Tik-Tik just summons his mana and struggles to break free.
